Memories fade
Everyday
They fade
You’ll forget the details
The place, or the time
The conversation, of why you could not stop laughing
Memories disappear
Slip between our fingers
And are lost like a grain of sand
Camouflaged as a painting
Dressed up like a white knight
They say memories fade
And that time heals all wounds
Let time wash away the guilt
The pain of today
Watch the clock evaporate into the wall
As the minute hand spins out of control
And my head starts to ache
A hole is bleeding into my chest
They fade; memories do fade
But they come back, clear as day
And the pain is as real
As dagger in your back
…. And it starts all over again
